London Lisbonite
http://londonlisbonite.blogspot.com/
A lifestyle / interior design blog written by a design-loving foodie Lisbonite currently living in London and working to renovate the shell of a period townhouse with the Boyfriend. London Lisbonite tracks the progress of the rebuild/redecoration of the house, as well as serving as a pinboard for all things fabulous, tasty, pretty and downright unusual that I find in my travels across the great interweb (and, to a lesser extent, the globe!). I might even drop in a couple of recipes from time to time (oh, you lucky readers, you!).

Shop in the spotlight: Bailey doesn\'t bark
One of my friends in the USA mentioned this shop to me a couple of days ago. She'd bought a lot of stocking fillers there and thought that I should take a peek. I've seen the ant series and intend to buy a sizable chunk of it once I get paid (just th...
Interior design: Maria Raposo
I first found Maria Raposo, a Portuguese design firm, when I was looking for ideas for a light to hang low over the dining table. Their designs gave me a few things to think about (I adore that red lamp!) so I thought I'd share a few of their other t...
Limited edition espresso cups
I have far too many espresso cups. Nobody needs three sets of the things but there's something so dainty about them that when I see one I like, I immediately envision using them at a dinner party. I even mentally picture what I would have cooked and ...
